        Verdict

        Uncle Dermot had Countess Ellen back in fourth when scoring over a mile at Windsor last time. He should be thereabouts again, as should Empress Charlotte who has been threatening to get her head in front for the first time of late. However, a low-key finale can go to ORTHODOX LAD as this looks slightly easier than the couple of races he was placed in last month. High On The Hog could prove best of the remainder.
